Residents in our training program are certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS), Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS), Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS), Advanced Wilderness Life Support (AWLS), and participate in cadaver and airway procedure lab every July and August.

First-year residents spend 5 months in the emergency department and for 7 months, they experience a variety of off-service rotations.

Second-year residents spend most of their time in the emergency department. They are expected to begin teaching junior residents in addition to seeing patients.

Third-year residents spend 11 months in the emergency department as a senior resident and in an increasingly supervisory role. They help orient first-year residents and assume more of the organization and decision making responsibilities of the department. During this year, residents perform an administration rotation, and elective month in addition to completing their research and quality improvement projects.

Our program is the oldest EM program in Texas. We have several Christian faculty that will work with you to integrate your faith into your medical practice on a daily basis. Our clerkship only accepts students for away rotations from US allopathic schools.

Please join us for a virtual meeting session on July 22 at 8pm (CST). This is a great time to learn more about the program.
